Sir David Attenborough, who turns 100, makes Emmy history as the oldest nominee in Primetime Emmy history. Multiple outlets report that he receives two nominations in the category Outstanding Narrator. One nomination is for his narration of the Netflix documentary film “A Gorilla Story: Told by David Attenborough.” A second nomination is for his work narrating a National Geographic project; the outlets note the nomination is for the National Geographic work but do not provide full details in the excerpts.
The reporting also states that winners for the relevant categories, including Outstanding Narrator and Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Special, are announced during the Creative Arts Emmy Awards. The two nominations place Attenborough at a milestone in the Emmy nominations process given his age. Other nominations discussed in the source coverage include recognition for a documentary connected to Mel Brooks, according to one outlet, though the provided excerpts do not specify additional category details beyond acknowledging the recognition.
